CARDELLO: Is There No Low to the Bottom Feeders the Left Will Support

Sun, 2026-01-04 15:00 +0000

If Donald Trump identifies them as detrimental to America, you can almost guarantee that the Left will be out in force supporting them.

Sat, 2026-01-03 22:00 +0000

You can pay more if you want to. We’ve got stores hereabouts that’ll take 4-5 dollars a dozen for eggs, but they always did that.

OPINION: Revisiting JD Bernardy’s HB652 – Abolishing Family Court

Sat, 2026-01-03 17:00 +0000

Editor: The author has asked to remain anonymous. In New Hampshire, family courts have outwardly been a two-decade battleground  between parents and the legislature—those striving to restore due process and accountability, while others are committed to continuing an irretrievably broken system. Unsurprisingly, meaningful corrective provisions for due process, appeals, and redress options are notably absent in ... Read more

LIVE STREAM: Trump on Venezuela Operation

Sat, 2026-01-03 15:30 +0000

Overnight, the US military escorted Federal law enforcement into Caracas, Venezuela, to arrest Nicolás Maduro. By all accounts, the effort (mission) was flawless.

MACDONALD: While We’re Getting Uppity about ‘Learning Center’ Fraud

Sat, 2026-01-03 12:00 +0000

It is not lost on anyone anymore that when Democrats use the word affordable in front of any other word, it means subsidized money laundering into Democrat campaigns. And not to kick a dead donkey, but I’ve been more than clear about how and why Democrats don’t have a clue how to do it any ... Read more

In his December 2025 commentary for The Daily Signal, “Leaders Fail When the Threat of Radical Islam Is Ignored,” Victor Davis Hanson does not merely contribute to the 24-hour news cycle; he pens a digital memento mori for a fading civilization.

Fri, 2026-01-02 22:00 +0000

Fri, 2026-01-02 19:00 +0000

In the previous six articles, I outlined the history and evolution of the judiciary in New Hampshire. In the last article, I covered how the 1968 BAR merger subverted New Hampshire’s legislative will and entrenched judicial corruption.
